	A golf tournament for 12 people		2013-08-01
		From Brad: I've looked all over the web for a solution to this (including searching the archives here) to no avail. We're doing a golf tournament with twelve people. Each person has a "handicap" that demonstrates their skill level. We have these numbers for each of the 12 players. We are trying to figure out how to schedule two rounds of golf with the most balance possible. - We are playing two "real" rounds of golf (18 holes). There are four people per group. - We want to split each round into two 9 hole games, which gives us a total of 4 games - Halfway through (after 9 holes), you switch partners within the foursome that you're playing in. - We want everyone to play with 4 unique different teammates So say you start the first 18 hole round as a group of Players 1, 2, 3, and 4. Players 1 and 2 are a team, and players 3 and 4 are a team. After 9 holes, Player 1 would either be paired up with Player 3 or 4, and the other two players would pair up as well. Then the next day we will mix up the foursomes and do the same thing. In terms of just pure scheduling this is simple. But I'm trying to figure out how to best balance the handicaps (simple average of each team's two handicaps works here). Assuming I'll need some sort of program or spreadsheet. Any help or even a push in the right direction would be a tremendous help. Thanks in advance to anyone who wants to give this a shot. Answered by Victoria West.

	Twelve golfers		2009-06-26
		From Fred: Hello- There are twelve golfers in 3 foursomes for three days. Is there a combination of four man foursomes that allow for no duplicates? In other words, is there a formula to insure the greatest amount of variety in the foursomes. Looking at it math like you have 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12 grouped into four numbers each for three days. So if your have the first day 1,2,3,4 in one group, 5,6,7,8 in the second and 9,10,11,12 in the third what can you do for the next two days to have the fewest duplicates or have the greatest variety in the foursomes? Thanks Answered by Karen Meagher and Victoria West.
	0123456789		2009-03-25
		From Dr.: Many years ago I discovered that there are 33 numbers which, when multiplied by 0123456789, simply rearrange the digits. Surprisingly (to me at least) is the fact that the digits of all of those 33 numbers add up to one of the 6 "cardinal" numbers 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, and 8. For example 6 + 2 = 8 and 62 X 0123456789 = 7654320918 etc. Another interesting (to me) fact is that only the cardinal numbers 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, and 8 rearrange the digits in the number 9876543210. My question is: "Is this known to anyone but me and the people I have told?" Answered by Robert Dawson.

There are going to be either 8 or 12 players playing 4 rounds of golf. The questions that he says will not work and I do not know how to figure it out either is 4 Rounds of golf is for sure. 18 hole Rounds each 4 Players to a group Either 8 or 12 players can every player play with every player in a group at least once during those 4 rounds.
